Fire and Ice: The Flash's Power Couple
Between the touching Barry Allen family story line and Eddie's sacrifice to eliminate the Reverse Flash threat, lost in The Flash season 1 finale shuffle was Caitlin Snow and Ronnie Raymond's wedding.
It was a brief but happy team moment in the park, officiated by Firestorm's other half, Victor Garber, who had the only truly funny line - to Ronnie - in the whole episode:
"Let's not fight on our wedding day."
We know very little about Firestorm's role in Legends of Tomorrow's debut season, except that the ever-sarcastic Dr. Martin Stein says in the trailer, to the other Legends, "You call this a team?"
For a guy who spent The Flash season 1 as a conjoined twin, he's sure not much of a team player.
First, a logistical matter. Robbie Amell hasn't actually been confirmed on the Legends of Tomorrow cast. If he is, how do the writers portray a married couple on 2 different shows?
Marc Guggenheim has said offhandedly, "He'll be around." On shows that feature multiverses and time travel, that could mean anything. Victor Garber has said the whole situation will be explained in The Flash season 2 premiere.
Now that's a statement we mere mortals can get our heads around.
Maybe it's a long-distance relationship, which basically describes Caitlin and Ronnie's entire engagement as we knew it in season 1. He was either missing and presumed dead, or confirmed alive but gone.
Second, what happens if Caitlin as Killer Frost is a villain, or has an evil twin? Ronnie, of all people, would be sympathetic to that situation.
But if Fire & Ice holds literally true, would they have to go their separate ways to protect each other, or would Reverse Caitlin turn on her husband and true love?
The theme music for Caitlin and Ronnie's wedding was "Don't Dream It's Over." That should tell us something.
